Ryan Howard and Jimmy Rollins remix the 7th Inning Stretch

Tonight kicks off the much-anticipated Phillies-Mets series at Shea and here's guessing Chase Utley won't be surprised if he's booed before the game. Although I have no horse in the race other than a preference to play with the Phils on MLB Power Pros, I'm excited for this series between the two 53-46 teams because it seems like the first of what will be many important divisional matchups throughout the league. (Only the AL West currently looks to be a runaway).

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I think it's safe to say that the pennant races have officially begun. So in honor of that (and tonight's series), here's Ryan Howard and Jimmy Rollins singing Take Me Out To The Ballgame as only two stone-cold cool dudes from Philly could. Enjoy, courtesy of The Fightins'.
